从小，就爱那名为相思的豆子，更爱那固中含义。坚硬的外壳，内里却是那么的浪漫。
依稀记得从前曾拥有过那么一瓶的豆子，却怎么也记不起它的去处。。抑或只是存在那以为的记忆里？

Belated Vday Celebration :)
Although it was a belated Valentine's meal, it was not a bad idea to have it at the top of the iconic supertree at Gardens by the Bay, last week. However we had to spend a little bit more effort and time in locating it since we were first-timers there, still it was worth to try.
The bistro is narrow but a good idea for drinking and chilling out. I was expecting more than good food knowing that it was IndoChine as I had a splendid experience during my last visit to another outlet. The beef was quite impressive but not the over-cooked chicken. So I requested for a replacement.
We took a short walk at the roof top after meal and soaked in the view on the tallest Supertree. There was nothing else to do but capture the moments :)
Name: IndoChine @ Gardens by the Bay
Location: 18 Marina Gardens Drive, Singapore 018953
Nature: Western/Asian
Recommended for chill out and drinking

About V-Day
Here's the fuss about lovey dovey V-Day: A very long time ago, Christians lived under the tyranny of the Roman Empire, where they would be persecuted for their faith. Saint Valentinus went against the law to perform weddings for soldiers who were disallowed the legal right to be married - but St Valentine helped them anyway.Subsequently, he was thrown into jail, where he healed his jailer's daughter by performing a miracle. Prior to his execution, he wrote, "from your Valentine", as a final sendoff.
Even if it's only a legend, the story of a man who believed in love and helped it flourish even in the toughest of times should rightfully inspire you to do the same for your loved one. Take some time to reflect on V-Day itself. Do you only send the gifts, the flowers, and take that extra step to display your affection just once in a year?
It's alright to say yes, because sometimes we get caught up in the whirlwind of building a life with our partner and forget that s/he is together on the same path as us. Whether it's Valentine's Day, a wedding anniversary, or a dating anniversary, these days help remind us to pause and take a deep breath to enjoy the people we love.
So the next time you think that Valentine's Day is just an over-commercialized marketing scheme of businesses, just look on the bright side and think of it as another day to show someone - romantic or not - how much you love them. Those extra dollars and cents are well-worth the price because you know they deserve it.

一块钱的满足
不晓得从何时，开始期待那清脆的铃铛声。
九点半，九点四十，九点五十，怎么还没来？
“ 叮叮叮。。” “ 来了！”
像个孩子似地飞奔到楼下，排队，还钱，大口大口地吃着。好像一整天就只为了这小小的期待。
原来快乐真的可以那么简单！

A Vow For Life
Vow-writing can be one of the most stressful bits of wedding
planning. You’ll often hear that both bride and groom sometimes leave the task
undone right up until the night before the big day! It’s no surprise – writing
your own vows, your sincerest promises to your spouse that you’re going to
announce to every person in your world, are rightfully daunting and should be
taken in absolute seriousness.
What can you put in a vow? Virtually anything. You can tell
your partner why you love them, why you’re going to love them for the rest
of your life forever and also state your intentions and what your relationship means to you.
Just be honest, open, and speak from the heart. Look over
your vows and revise them. Ask, “If I had one chance to convince them to marry
me, what would I say?” Draw inspiration from your memories, your wedding
invites, magazines, pick ideas from the internet, even. It doesn’t hurt to
look!
If all else fails and you’re still completely blank by the
end of your deadline, there’s always the standard template to fall back on,
which your priest or ordained minister can provide. Phew!
